News from Europe

Chinese EVs Nab Record 11% Share in Europe Ahead of Tariffs
SAIC fills dealer lots with MG4 model to beat duty deadline
BYD gains customer traction with Euro 2024 marketing push

Chinese brands captured 11% of the European electric-car market in June, notching record registrations as manufacturers raced to beat stiff European Union tariffs that took effect early this month....

I think to fight Atto 3 or Omoda E5, MG needs to launch New ZS EV fast

https://www.team-bhp.com/news/mg-zs-ev-succ...ead-2025-unveil

But the latest reports from Paul*an seems to show top EV are actually more balanced portfolio of sporty sedan and SUV

Because latest YTD July figures are:

No 1 BYD Seal sold 2,062
No 2 BYD Atto 3 sold 1,990
No 3 Tesla Model Y sold 1,794
No 4 Tesla Model.3 sold 1,599
No 5 BYD dolphin sold 1,018
No 6 Chery Omoda E5 sold 429
No 7 Ora good cat+ 07 combined sold 388
No 8 SMART #1 and # 3 sold 340
No 9 MG 4 sold 291

So brands like Chery and MG that have 1 SUV and 1 hatchback and a very dated SUV respectively are losing out a lot of action since both GW ora and SMART has covered at least a combo of hatchback/cross and hatchback cum cross and sedan respectively

MG has however more models to come that include a Cyberster and others to follow?!

So perhaps things will change after those comes in

Another thing about MG's interior, I think MG is very Shanghai's and European influenced: modern, stylish but reserved...kind of like Mazda
not a bad thing per se because not all buyers prefers shiny flashy things

MG EV ZS is to put it out honestly outdated, outspec'd and out priced , For the price it is asking , it often get overshadowed

But I like your perspective on the design. Knowing Shanghai, UK guys alone shouldn't take all the responsibility for it but it is what it is.

It will have it supporters , one of them is yours truly

Wish it (BYD Seal 06GT) will come soon here but then again it may not for it has Europe market set as target mainly .

https://insideevs.com/news/731495/byd-seal-06-gt-revealed/

If Malaysia have to wait so long for MG4 , this one could be a long wait too.

The prospect of it coming in reminds me of a song ` Let Down ' by Radiohead that goes....

'Transport
Motorways and tramlines
Starting and then stopping
Taking off and landing
The emptiest of feelings
Disappointed people
Clinging onto bottles
And when it comes it's so so disappointing
Let down and hanging around
Crushed like a bug in the ground
Let down and hanging around...'

Thanks for a great sharing.

I don't know about anyone else but MG4 is still the most ideal hatch EV to me, befitting even as a retirement gift to self. Perhaps that is what I will get for myself when that time comes.

“Imitation is (indeed) the sincerest form of flattery”

I appreciate your enthusiasm....

More reach in making....

What do you see?

2050 lah....not 2030. No urgency like no tomorrow. Any way if one want to look for sub100k EV , their only hope in 2025 is Neta V and Dongfeng Box. These 2 are among the EVs expected to be locally assembled (CKD) in 2025 – these could be priced below RM100k along with a Perodua EV developed with an Australian partner ( NOT Daihasu ) according to Pault*n

HOHOHO

Christmas has come early



Check out the comparison against others too

In short, circumvented in a clever way

Maybe trade in your civic for another rear wheel EV

LOL.

If only others follow suit, right?
